not unless you count being told "not interested" as a bad thing
Then you haven't lived.

"**** off"

This happened to me a few times in a nightclub/bar. I'm a good-looking guy and had zero problem with friends/dating/relations when I was in college.

After graduating college in a small town, it is easy to see that socializing and meeting people is not what it used to be. In fact, I NEVER GOT that hostility from any new people when IN college, but that's just how it is if you're male and in a small town with limited post-college social events before moving.

Rejection itself is not the issue. If the girl said something like "I'm flattered but I am not interested in meeting any people right now" or "Thanks, my friends need me", then it's cool. But I have to wonder why the extreme level of hostility?

Are these girls taking full advantage of the fact that he must approach, and maximizing this to feed her ego? Is she mad that women were wrongfully treated in the past (denied vote, etc) and mistreated in the world,
and this is her way of asserting her dominance ("men aren't so powerful now in the nightclub"). Or maybe it's because everyone would be on the woman's side which empowers her to do whatever she wants with no consequence (the bouncer would throw out the man no matter what he did out of a sense of chivalry
towards the woman and a certain view of men)

What was the worst rude rejection you'd ever received?
Why do some people reject in the matter above instead of just a simple "I'm not interested"? While in a small town for the time being till I meet my next girlfriend in a bigger city, it just makes meeting people & approaching much more harder, though I persist, with increasing misogyny and seething anger.
Man she sounded bitter, all that wasn't cause for. She could have just said, she wasn't interested. She probaly been hurt a lot. I can't recall myself, but my homeboy said he once said hi to a woman and her reply was I don't have time.

-I went up to a girl at a party and asked her to dance and she said, "Yes, but not with you."

-I'll go up to a group of women or they'll be sitting next to me at the bar and I'll start talking to them, and they just completely ignore me. That one has happened a number of times and is always fun.

There's others. I mean it's not a big deal to me, but it just really shows that you're a sh@tty person. I mean I asked my sister what she'd do if a guy asked her to dance, and she said, "Either dance with him or turn him down politely."

It's pretty amazing to me that so many people in this world think their sh@t doesn't stink.

I've been rejected several times. It's okay though because I use those rejections as fuel for my workouts. In the end, I still win

I can't recall any woman being mean about it. I'm sure I've been Bs'd a couple of times just to get rid of me though.

And sometimes women get a kick out rejecting a guy even if she thinks he's good looking. Especially if she sense him being over confident, some will do it.

Unless someone was drunk, belligerent or would not take no for an answer, I cannot imagine being that rude to someone. But I'm also never approached.

Worse rejection for me was a couple of years ago when I was at an arcade with some friends minding my own business going from one game to the next. Guy walked by, sneered, pointed at me, started barking, laughed and then walked off. Took me right back to the same thing happening when I was 18. Later, we passed the same guy on the street and he gave me a once over and look of total disgust.

That sucks.

But keep in mind, guys do that to even attractive women. I remember in HS, for a little while when I was a freshman I actually sat at a table with a few 'cool kids'. One of the guys (who was very popular and would eventually go to the prom with the most desirable girl in the school) saw this girl walk by and sneered at her, made oink noises and called her a pig. I could see she heard it and was visibly upset. It was actually one of my sister's friends and of course I was way too much of a wuss to say anything at age 13 though I definitely would these days.

The funny thing is, I thought she was quite attractive, and she wasn't fat at all.

I can't remember ever being rejected, but I also prefer to let the man do the asking.

I'm polite when I reject, but I've had rude reactions from men when I said no.

This thread is once again turning into a woman bashing thread and it's highly insulting. Both genders reject but the way posters are talking, that men are always nice but women aren't.

I can't help but wonder how many of them men complaining are the same ones who are mean to women in person, especially less attractive. I've had guys come up to me to bash the uglier women and this offended me because I'm not interested in bashing people who were innocent.
